Step by step guide to remove mud stains
However refreshing the rainy season be, it also brings along with it a problem that none of us who step outdoors during this time can escape from. Yeah, you’re right- it’s mud stains. It does not matter how careful we are of not stepping into a puddle or in avoiding mud slashes, they’re just unavoidable. Being unable to get rid of these splatters, leads to a lot of annoyance, as most times it makes us unwillingly give up clothes that we love dearly. Wouldn’t it be great if we could enjoy the season without any worries. Curious? Let’s walk through the step by step procedure of getting rid of them in the twinkling of an eye.
Step 1: Let the mud dry
Before washing or trying to clean the mud stain with water, it is essential that you let it dry for a little while. The process is complete when the mud feels dry when touched and gets lighter in colour. Once it has a crumbly appearance it is time for us to start working on it by proceeding to the next step. Not drying it prior to washing can worsen the stain, which would further lead to more hard work in removing it.
Step 2: Scrape it off
Once it has a friable appearance, we can easily scrape it off. For doing so, you should take the help of a spoon or a blunt knife. However, you should keep in mind to be gentle during the process and not dig at the fabric with the object you are using too harshly.
Step 3: Scrub with detergent
After you have successfully removed the dry portions, it is time to pre-treat it using a detergent. Not all detergents help in removing mud marks, and even if they do, they end up hardening the portion of the fabric which was muddy. Therefore, we recommend you to use Champion Blue Premium Detergent Powder, as it helps remove stubborn stains from your clothes while keeping them shiny, soft and vibrant. Just take a little bit of the powder and scrub it over the blotched portion with the help of a toothbrush, and in just a few minutes you will see it vanish. Then, we proceed to the next step.
Step 4: Machine wash or hand wash
Once we are done with treating the stain, we proceed to the next step where we load the garment, which we are working on, with the other garments which we need to wash in the washing machine. The same goes for hand-washing. Do not rinse off the detergent that you used to pre-treat the stain before this step. Keeping it helps ensure there’s no trace of it left after the wash.
Step 5: Air dry
The final step in this process is to air dry your clothes. Until they are completely dry, you cannot make sure whether you have successfully gotten rid of the mark or not. However, if you chose Champion Blue as your partner in fighting mud stains, you can rest assured that they are long gone!So next time it drizzles, don’t disturb your daily routine for it, and just put up your umbrellas or put on your rain-coats and walk out like a pro to enjoy the beautiful season.
